Prototype 1
Based on the sedsongs and clapping music exercises, create a prototype of a tool to translate some source of information into a sound. Your prototype should include:
- A short title
- A short description of what it is (supposed) to do
- An example of one or more inputs (in the form of text)
- An example of one or more outputs (sound files)
